“This was our first time having Sandy take care of Lily and all I can say is she is AMAZING! Her check in updates and pics were so lovely and kind, plus Lily loved her too! Upon my return, my house was clean and smelled wonderful - just another display of how much Sandy cares for her clients! We will definitely be using Sandy again! 100 out of 10!”

About: I have loved all pets since I was little when my grandpa was a vet. I’ve always had dogs growing up and absolutely love taking care of all of them and I’m always looking for a new furry friend I’m currently working part-time and I always have extra time just laying around so I wanted to give myself a little something to do and something that I enjoy! I have 2 dogs of my own and they have a massive yard to run in and absolutely love going on walks that I take them on everyday and I would do the same and care for your pets like they are my own.

“Nicole was the perfect sitter for our weekend trip. She was very attentive to our three cats, and she went above and beyond in terms of the service. Nicole was prompt, flexible, and detail-oriented in terms of the directions we gave her. I suspect this won’t be the last time we go to her for some help 😁”

“Elizabeth is a true gem, she stayed over a couple nights with our Nugget kitty. She was amazing, went above and beyond expectations. Followed all the detailed notes for caring for Nugget, spent time and played a lot with her. We got many pictures and videos of Nugget. There was an unexpected problem where the AC cut out the second night, we talked her through how to get it going with no luck, and offered her to leave instead of staying that night without AC. Like a trooper, she said I am staying. We came home to find our cat happy, like she didn't even miss us! and the house was better than we left it, clean kitchen, mail and trash picked up, including laundry of sheets etc she used! We definitely want Elizabeth back again, so does Nugget!”
About: I have experience caring for pets ranging from dogs and cats to horses and lizards. Animals of all different sizes and temperaments, and I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, so I take the time to follow instructions carefully and give them the attention they’re used to at home. I’m also available for house sitting, which allows pets to stay in their familiar home while their owners travel. I’m respectful of clients’ homes and make sure everything stays clean, safe, and well cared for while I’m there. My goal is to treat every pet like my own and give owners peace of mind knowing their dog AND home are in good hands. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I’m able to schedule walks, playtime, feedings, and check-ins throughout the day, and I’m also available for extended care or house sitting when needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets have a secure space, fresh water, and a clean area to play and rest. I follow all owner instructions carefully, supervise interactions, and create a calm, positive atmosphere so pets feel safe and happy while I’m caring for them.
“Shelby was amazing! She came by for 30 minute check ins over the course of two weeks while I was on vacation. She went above and beyond what I had hoped for and what any past”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Growing up in a home with up to 12 dogs at a time, I was one of the primary caregivers, so I’m very comfortable handling multiple pets and different personalities. I’ve also cared for cats, birds, reptiles, and fish, and I bring a calm, patient approach to every animal I work with. Whether your dog is high-energy, shy, or somewhere in between, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I have experience with basic training (sit, place, leash manners) as well as more playful skills like fetch—and even the occasional howl. I have a flexible schedule, which means I can be reliable, responsive, and available when you need help. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to make things as easy and stress-free as possible for you. I’m in a phase where I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to be highly available and responsive for pet care needs throughout the week. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. For drop-in visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, litter or yard clean-up, and plenty of attention and playtime based on your pet’s personality and energy level.

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea cat parents share their Rover experiences
We’ve had a wonderful experience with Kayla. She is great with our two cats, including our elderly cat who needs medication, and we feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in her care. They clearly enjoy her visits and are relaxed and happy when we get home. We especially appreciate the photos and updates she sends—it really gives us peace of mind to know she’s keeping such a close eye on them. We would absolutely recommend her!
Genesis was an amazing sitter. She loved my kitties like they were her own. Showering them with love, pets, attention, and always kept me updated with lots of photos and videos. She also helped with up-keeping my plants while I was away. I completely recommend her to any cat parent ❤️
I just returned from my trip and I’m hoping I am typing correctly here but I just wanted to say that Ashley was THE PERFECT sitter for my sweet boy cat. I was able to book her at the last minute and she not only came to my rescue but surpassed all my expectations for what one looks for in a cat sitter. She automatically sent me photos & a video, and asked all the right questions to help aid in taking care of Sachi. I couldn’t have been more pleased with her service and I’m hoping to book her in the future. I loved her care & concern to details and to Sachi’s safety. Ashley was awesome.
Tammy was amazing with Foma. She was attentive, patient, and handled his curious, playful personality so well (including his love for treats and getting into everything). She kept a close eye on him, took great pictures, and even brought him toys he loved. We felt completely at ease knowing Foma was in such good hands and would highly recommend her.
Jennifer is AMAZING! I couldn’t be happier with the care my my cat (Lily) received! From the very first visit, it was clear that she truly loves animals and takes her responsibility seriously. She gave me so much peace of mind while I was away—sending updates, photos, and little notes that made me feel completely at ease. My cat, Lily, who can be a bit picky with new people, absolutely adored her! It was such a relief knowing she was not only well cared for but genuinely happy. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving cat sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💛
